anyone using it?
seems nice to me however there is a big problem with it : it overrides the passive evasion archer buff
is it a bug i wonder
doesnt sound right for a 8 seconds skill to override a 30 minutes buff
meow?

b:bye

    This genie move is great for when you need to take less damage. But ToP can usually do the trick too.

    I replaced it though to try out new genie skills. And i find myself already fine without it and just using wings of grace instead.
    Navarre was your everyday veno, until she learned her true form. Now she's fox walloping and purging over and over again.. all for a deep stinging, head hunting, wind pushing Assassin. Will there be inner harmony and myriad rainbows? But of course! Yuri&Lemon Find it on Fanfiction XD "Discovering Sanctuary" Chapter 2 is up ^_^

    Wind shield <3

    30% less damage without the casting time of wings of grace or the chi. Also increases atk speed by 10% and evasion by 10%

    I like to call it my robe **** machine.

    yes its a really nice skill but doesn't it bothers you that it removes Wings of Protection buff? I mean if you fighting a BM/barb and u use it, after 8 seconds you will remain with your default evasion...
    I think it was a genie bug thread but i can't find it cause i would report this as a bug :/

    It's not a bug, when a lv10 buffs n lv 8 buffs u later(5min)..
    U will get the lv8 buff n duration but u won't keep lv 10.. Cus buffs don't stack..
    So if I have ur ev buff, once u do genie.. It drops ur buff n uses genie

    Yea it's kinda lame that it removes the evasion bonus you get but If I'm fighting a BM/Barb then either

    A) I have more than enough evasion as it is
    B) They have mistys and it doesn't matter how much evasion I have

    Clerics/mages/venos hit regardless so they only case where I would take the WoP buff over wind sheild is if I'm fighting another archer.

    I personally love it/use it often in TW especially.
    the increase in attk rate I didn't check it , but the fun part it stacks with Dew of God protection. Kinda' fun to see lvl 9x archer with +10 TT90 wpn hit me 3-4 times for 300 dmg.

    I need 50 magic on my genie ....:/

    Always using it in pvp/grinding. It doesn't bother me that it removes evasion buff because I never use it either. Also very useful to have it with a high regeneration genie (got a 2.8 energy/sec genie).
